I wonder, If the plan is forked off another coin, what is different and why the need for a new asset?
World packaging market will reach $1 trillion milestone in 2020
Booming packaging market global demand is impressive. Smithers Pira’s flagship report The Future of Global Packaging to 2020 – updated to 2018, but confirming the data emerged by many other previous reports, such as Quarterly Packaging Report by Havi (2016), Global Packaging Trends Report by PMMI (2017), Industrial Packaging Market Research Report By Market Research Future (2018) – attests a growing worldwide expansion of 3.5% year-on-year, starting from 2015, when the sector market value reached the $839 billion (€768billion) record. A trend that, forecasts and experts analysis confirm, will continue at least until 2020, when packaging market value will reach the $1 trillion milestone, proving to be one of the most stable and profitable for future investments.
Sector expansion is not proceeding uniformly: as expected, emerging countries will play a pivotal role in the packaging economy, by creating new opportunities for material suppliers and converters. Simultaneously more established regions are already undergoing significant business and demographic changes that will transform their value in the packaging industry. Let’s analyse, more in detail, how those changing will happen and which specific segments will influence

Century-old logistic colossus USP converted to Blockchain
“There may be scenarios in which it is advantageous for various logistics service providers to transport the shipment unit along different legs/segments from its origin to its destination. However, it may be difficult to coordinate the transportation of the shipment unit through the various logistics service provider transportation networks. Moreover, if there are special handling requirements for transporting the shipment unit, it may be difficult to ensure that the special handling requirements are carried through by each of the various logistics service providers that may assist in transporting the shipment unit.”
This is what is read in a note, published last Thursday by the US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), which explains the decision of the delivery giant to switch to Blockchain and DLT (distributed ledger technology) to route packages throughout an international supply chain that may include multiple carriers.
United Parcel Service (UPS) is a Georgia based multinational package delivery and supply chain management company, founded way back in 1907 — when deliveries still were made on foot and, only for longer trips, on bicycles — which now counts almost 440,000 employees worldwide, over 105,000 vehicles, a revenue of 65.872 billion (2017) and three main divisions and subsidiaries, its cargo airline (UPS Airlines), freight-based trucking operation (UPS Freight, formerly Overnite Transportation), and retail-based packing and shipping centers (The UPS Store).
But why a century-old authority in the logistic system decided to change course and rely on the disrupting power of blockchain technology?
The main answer is probably that, within the current system it is still difficult to coordinate logistics for shipments that involve more than one logistics service provider transportation network: the patent application, which UPS originally filed on Feb. 16, could help streamline package delivery logistics across a global supply chain. While shipping logistics providers have, indeed, become quite adept at optimizing package routing to increase efficiency and minimize costs, UPS aims to tackle this problem with an autonomous system that, in some embodiments, uses an immutable blockchain ledger to automatically route packages through multiple logistics service provider networks.

CMR
Full meaning: Cargo Movement Requirement
CMR is a consignment note with a standard set of transport and liability conditions, which replaces individual businesses' terms and conditions. The CMR note confirms that the carrier (ie the road haulage company) has received the goods and that a contract of carriage exists between the trader and the carrier.
CMR will be an indispensable document to our delivery agents most especially, and to suppliers, buyers, and all OPN platform users in general.
CMR shipping document is an official document / convention for international carriage formed by the United Nations which is used by all the EU member countries and some additional ones. Its main purpose is to define various legal issues which may arise in the transportation of cargo via road and it is escorting all international road shipments while in transit.
The document can be requested when there is a police check or a customs check and the driver needs to carry it with him until the final delivery destination. The document is filled in either by the seller or the forwarder. Usually in full truck loads it is filled in by the seller and in less than full truck loads by the forwarder (especially when the truck that will pick up the order is not the truck that will deliver it).
The document is written usually in two languages and has standard fields labeled with numbers. Each number corresponds to specific information that need to be written inside. There are sometimes small variations in the CMR layout and some additional labeled fields are entered depending on the type of shipments that are served.
Below mentioned are the most important fields to be filled in during a standard shipment:
The Shipper’s contact info In this section of the CMR the information of the company that makes the loading (shipper) needs to be entered (Company name, address, post code, city, country). The Consignee’s contact info.
In this section of the CMR the information of the company that will be billed should be entered (company name, address, post code, city, country).
The address where the products will be delivered. Additional if there is an agreement for the shipment to be delivered until a specific date, expected deliver date info can be filled in. The shipper’s loading address info, any documents that are submitted to the driver can be also mentioned here (i.e. delivery note, invoice, packing list etc.)

If I'm not mistaken the bounty program has been completed, hopefully if this token is entered in the market have a very high price. so that all participants can feel very satisfying results.
Everyone is waiting for it too, hoping this will be a difference from the normal icos that just sell tokens and lose value soon after.
We are creating a unique platform for the global packaging industry and it will be built on blockchain, we focusing on the platform development, we don't compare the project with others, we try to do the best community.
So what happens to ansurance and promises when the project cannot deliver?
First of all, OPN gives no assurances or promises on ROI. Any project that does that is obviously a big red flag. That said, OPN has a solid foundation base in packaging and blockchain which is traceable to our registered company in Zug Switzerland and our MVP that will be available before our ICO plus structured roadmap plan for the testnet and Mainet OPN platform.

A lot of contributors might wish to buy the presale but lock up periods can be drawback so consider, it can attract more investors.
Very correct. So many icos nowadays, people are looking for the best , some are looking for short term gains. Very few will wait for a long time for tokens to be unlocked etc. Good to see your team is reconsidering, means you heard the community.

OPN Platform wanted it to be a public digital ledger for the packaging industry. I expected it to be able to provide sellers seriously interested buyers, better payment terms, trustworthy demand forecasts and fairy goods prices and, on the other side, to guarantee buyers seriously interested sellers, first-quality materials and really fast deliveries.
When MVP is out we will see clearly how this will change the ecommerce marketplace and trade of packaging materials and equipments on the platform
A working and well built prototype is a good signal for a huge platform. So I hope the dev can bring quality, and accept necessary corrections from the community and third party dev to improve it so platform can be better, only there and then can I be sure this project is destined to the moon

On packaging industry disruption (and how we are facing it)
There’s something bipolar going on into the current packaging industry. Consumers are always more shopping online while seeking out for more sustainability. Seem to love all this brand new smart packaging stuffs, while choosing products with those old-fashioned and vintage labels. Look for the best price, while don’t want to renounce to quality. Assert they don’t want packaging anymore while seeking for wrappings that extend food freshness, preserve ingredient fortification, and ensure safe delivery.
How can the sector stand up to all those pressures, to the new consumers’ requests, to the disruption of the whole industry system? And, more important, why have those challenges became so urgent now and how can we face them?
Well, let us proceed in order.
Packaging has always been ubiquitous but overlooked at the same time: customers’ demand changing, sustainability issues, the rise of e-commerce and IoT technologies, brands’ requests for packages to play a more active role in marketing their products, raw market fluctuations are squeezing out industry professional and imposing pressures both from above and below.
